For a long time, the ending has a great influence on a drama. Even some netizens have changed their praise attitude because of dissatisfaction with some dramas, which directly reduces their scores on Douban on Douban. The ending is part of the story, and you can see the idea of the creator.

Different from the script rotten, the common ending creation HE, BE, and the white OE (Open Ending) have become more and more likely to cause heated discussions in recent years. Many fans hope to master the end of the episode, so as to live up to the enthusiasm of chasing and filling members.

However, in recent years, in addition to conventional sweet pet dramas, fantasy myths, urban reality, and business war workplace film and television dramas, more and more BEs have been used to sublimate the purpose, which has caused audiences to think. HE or BE is worthy of controversy. It also needs to explore: Can the final BE setting be up to the drama episode and create BE aesthetics? How much can a deliberate ending ending in sympathy?

BE pattern is large, HE is easy to routine?

The ending of "Agarwood", many fans agreed to believe that this BE is a big pattern: even if the protagonist does not look at each other, he can sacrifice the ego in order to protect the life and the Six Realms. And this pattern is not what Xiao Ai can achieve. However, for netizens who do not buy accounts, this sacrifice is not realistic enough. For the fantasy drama based on love, the value of its existence is to realize the audience's beautiful imagination of love, rather than "pain" for the pattern.

The discussion of the topic related topics of "Agarwood" is a typical representative of the current struggle between HE and BE, and it is also the ending of most domestic fantasy myths.

In traditional Chinese literature and art, sad emotions can be included in tragedy. In fact, many domestic drama tragic dramas represented by Bad Ending, the original intention of continuing the traditional Western tragedy aesthetic and artistic tradition, and also want to use this as a real footnote for the tragedy of the Chinese nation, and strive to enhance the artistic and ideological nature of the episode.

In "Agarwood", Ying Yuan has the evil Shura bloodline, but he is in the high position of the emperor, and has the supreme divine power. His character settings are like a tragic character "Revenge God" and "Orphan of Zhao" in the classical period. It shoulder an unusual mission, and has the lofty thoughts, great personality and immortal spirit of the interests of the country, the nation, and sentient beings. In domestic dramas, it is easy to remind people of Zhao Linger's role in "The Legend of the Fairy Sword". Even if confirmed the love with Xiaoyao, he still needs to resist the mission of his son -in -law. Own. Similarly, the cause of the abuse of Xu Changqing and Zi Xuan of "Xian Jian Qi Xia Legend 3" also has their own identity and mission. In contrast, compared with HE, BE's stamina is also greater, and it can be sublimated more than the opposition. It is more likely to make the audience attachment and touch.

Back to the creative theme of tragedy aesthetic drama, traditional tragedies are mostly used from nobles, myths, legends, and national history. The ending of "Agarwood" is like other fantasy myths, which fits the creative operation of traditional tragedy. It is reasonable that this should be able to obtain understanding in the weighing of big love and small love, but in fact, there are quite a lot of controversy.

Perhaps this must be reviewed by China's understanding of tragedy aesthetics. Generally speaking, the tragedy aesthetics of the West mostly from the level of fate tragedy, personality tragedy, social tragedy and historical tragedy, showing the cause and effect of the protagonist's tragedy, even more. From the perspective of personality and destiny, the ending, a hammer. On the other hand, the creative concept and original intention of domestic drama series, love is the main line, and other sufferings are only for love. Whether it is the side background in love or creating conditions for love, it only borrows the appearance of the tragedy. The connotation in color understanding. Therefore, the episode with love as the background, the ending should have been in line with the line of love, but now it has developed into it. Because he does not want to abandon "Bo Ai", it appears that "a lot of love in the early stage is to pour water for love, and the last blog love is great belonging". Embarrassing situation.

Recently, the online broadcast of "Hidden Dust Smoke" has caused a wide range of popularity. Although "Hidden Dust Smoke" is a rare rural theme literary film, the processing of its ending still causes a lot of puzzlement. The actor, who is rooted in the land and is active and optimistic, is hard -working and hard -working, and is dedicated to others. In the end, he died of his wife's accident. There is a personality attitude that originally admits it. It is undeniable that the loyal BE rendered by "Hidden Dust Smoke" is a impact on the current real society. But its own tone does not conform to the character characteristics of the character.

Based on this, British literary theorist and critic Terry Iglton mentioned in his book "Sweet Violence: The Concept of Tragedy" that China does not have the concept of tragedy in a strict sense. He believes that only emotional sadness is regarded as tragedy, and it will ignore the rising value of tragedy aesthetic spirit.

If the creator deliberately pursue the twists and turns of the plot, impose an accident to increase the sad atmosphere, and to abuse, it will not touch the background of tragedy aesthetics at all. The three major live treasures of Korean drama love dramas are also the best footnote for this kind of teasing. For domestic dramas that are based on love -based tones, the original focus of the world love suddenly given up at the last moment, and it is easily criticized by the audience.

The success of the domestic fantasy drama has become popular. In addition to the original role of the characters in the episode, creators still need to clarify their original intentions. If the type of "love" was originally set at the beginning, then the scale of "big love" and "little love" need to be measured to create unlimited opportunities and possibilities for the audience.

Therefore, the ending is not desirable or must be criticized. Instead, it is necessary to comprehensively consider to reflect on whether it is in line with the tragedy aesthetic episodes, and whether it will penetrate the tragedy tone from the beginning. The beauty of "East Palace" also left a booing and sigh for the public is the tone of the play itself, and it is an irreparable ending. The sublimation and raising of the ending pattern still needs to be based on the tone of the entire episode, and must not be abused for abuse.

Fanwai is the landing of Lenovo, not a supplement to deliberately be

In addition to the above -mentioned tone issues, the point that deliberately caused by BE was whether the creator finished the story, and be considered the last point of the story at the end of the story. When many netizens took stock of the "Agarwood" dual kill (two protagonists went to die), they boldly guess that the ending of "Agarwood" is still in a state of "unfinished". Fans also expect that creators can sprinkle sugar for everyone in the form of conventional Fan Fan.

At present, the film and television creation industry does have the operation of "outer supplementation and make up for fans' regrets." However, this method can only be regarded as a "derivative" of the episode, and it does not become a way for platform investors to create suspense and forcibly create dual ending. If the creator forcibly ended on the unknown node of the episode in order to absorb a large number of different positions, and then launched the ending in the form of Fan Fan, this method is really difficult to agree.

The ending of "The Most Beautiful Time" has always been the regret of the fans. Some fans complained that the play's final ending, and the original love line was forcibly developed into BE. The fans even looked forward to making up for regrets, and never thought, but finally felt that they were obviously "cutting leeks".

Therefore, if the episode BE is not the original point of the story, but for the service of the outside or other sequels in the future, the creator even earlier the formal episode, and it will be forcibly announced on the sorrow and sublimation in the middle of the tragedy. At the end of BE, let the public wait for an unprecedented ending in sighing and unwillingness, providing enthusiasm for topic discussions and capital monetization. In the long run, the processing method of BE is not only not conducive to the artistic creation of film and television dramas, but also failed the expectations of the public and encourages the bad atmosphere of the future development of the Chinese film and television industry.

Open ending roundabout remedy, inferior to the clear position of hidden details

In the dispute between BE and HE, OE (Open Ending open ending), which is in the middle position, is becoming more and more favored by creators and audiences. On the one hand, creators can take into account the market tendency and meet the needs of the audience to the greatest extent. On the other hand, the screenwriters who pursue the sublimation can also be in their ideological emotions.

Even so, there are still a large number of professional film critics rejecting and contempt for the two -sided play of the creators. "My Sister" screenwriter You Xiaoying once said in the ending of "My Sister": "We have always emphasized support, not a dominance. All people should have their own choices and be responsible for their choices. This kind of destiny is not to say that I will finish shooting a cool drama. Life will always be accompanied by a very complicated meaning. "This indirectly reflects the attention of some screenwriters to the ending of the story. There is the spiritual attitude of the screenwriter, not the spiritual attitude of the screenwriter, not the spiritual attitude of the screenwriter. In order to cater to the complete opening of.

The domestic drama "One Flash and One Flash" is the most typical open ending. The last shot of the play is that someone has an umbrella for the female lead. This smile can suggest that the male lead is back. But in the end, did the male lead come back and how to come back? These are important plots of the story and an important part of the plot.

However, the ending has not been explained and explained clearly. Although it can provide the audience with the interpretation and association of an open ending, it is also a manifestation of incomplete logic design. Because, as far as the ending of the narrative ritual work is concerned, it is not only an important link and the final point of the development of the story, but also the concentration of the values of the creator.

If the creator is blurred to caters to the audience, it will only cause the incompleteness of the story narrative, so that it is difficult to touch the embarrassment of the spiritual sublimation high. For this situation, if the creator does not want to clarify the audience, he can still use many details in film and television to express his tendency to hidden. "Dreaming Space" or "Water Story" is the kind of drama that seems to be open, but it has a clear attitude. This kind of openness can truly help the audience's thoughts on film and television, and indirectly help the development of Chinese film and television.

Media saying

Borrowing Bazan's remarks in "What is the movie" is deeply original to intentionally avoid the sympathy of any warmth, and never fall into the adult's martial arts. This is the characteristic of rustic movies, and it should also be the pursuit and direction of the development of Chinese film and television dramas in the future.
